put pc in low-power state while downloading

Can you give me some tips on how I can lower the power consumption of the computer while I am downloading a file? I'm using windows xp as my main, but I also have w7 installed. If your tips are only for w7 then you can also answer it.Thanks in advance

"I'm using an old Eee PC 701 (with a broken display for added power efficiency!) for my torrents and other downloads. It also serves various other purposes and it is ideal as a 24/7 computer.

If you're looking for a really power efficient computer to run 24/7, consider the Fit-PC2, no matter how hard you try to save a few watt with your desktop PC, you will never ever get anywhere near the 6-8 Watt power consumption of this baby. :)"
